This is not just an intellectual conviction, he  contends, but a more profound kind of knowing that only true faith can  provide.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCombining Enns' reflections of his own spiritual journey with an examination of Scripture, \u003ci\u003eThe Sin of Certainty\u003c\/i\u003e  models an acceptance of mystery and paradox that all believers can  follow and why God prefers this path because it is only this way by  which we can become mature disciples who truly trust God. It gives  Christians who have known only the demand for certainty permission to  view faith on their own flawed, uncertain, yet heartfelt, terms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40944673652833,"sku":"9781529343236","price":10.23,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_28462019.jpg?v=1722614275","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9781529343236-the-sin-of-certainty","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
